Harrison (6’2/207) spent three years in Tuscaloosa, starting for two and contributing in all three with 31 pass breakups and seven interceptions. Harrison led the Crimson Tide in tackles as a 2017 junior (74), earning first-team All-SEC. He underwhelmed in pre-draft testing, however, managing a 4.63 forty and 34-inch vertical. Still, Harrison looks the part of an NFL strong safety or dime-package linebacker with the longest arms in this safety class (33 3/8"), a tone-setting playing style, and natural ball skills. He offers upside as a strong safety prospect. Apr 27 - 10:39 PM

The scout continued to speak glowingly about Harrison saying "He won’t have a problem covering tight ends unless his eye discipline gets bad. Same qualities as Kam (Chancellor) but a better coverage player" and "He can be a violent striker but he’s more of an engulfing tackler. He’s a big presence in the alley." Another scout said he is a "jawbreaker tackler compared to Minkah." Interestingly enough, Harrison has taken a visit with the Seahawks as they potentially look for a successor for Chancellor. Harrison will likely be a Day 2 selection. Apr 25 - 12:49 PM

An NFC team executive said that Alabama S Ronnie Harrison is "a feisty guy."

"Big and athletic but he's not really the brains of the defense over there," the executive said. And he's fine with that, noting that even though Harrison might not be The Man with the Plan in the locker room, the 6-foot-2, 207-pounder "handles his work." The Alabama safety took a visit to the DB-needy Seahawks late last week as he looks to secure a Day 2 selection. Apr 18 - 5:08 PM

This visit makes so much sense. Harrison, at his best, might be compared to Kam Chancellor. With Chancellor's future a bit cloudy, the Seahawks might invest in a player to take his spot outside of the first round. Apr 12 - 11:26 AM
